Psalm 111 Sacred Blues Song: Whole Heart Hallelujah

** Psalm 111 was written as a heartfelt song of praise, most likely during the post-exilic period when the Israelites had returned from Babylonian captivity. It reflects deep gratitude and awe for God’s faithful works and enduring righteousness. The psalmist uses an acrostic structure (each line beginning with a successive Hebrew letter) — a literary art form symbolizing completeness and devotion. This psalm was sung in worship gatherings to remind God's people of His mighty deeds, His covenant love, and His never-ending faithfulness.

In today’s world, Psalm 111 still calls us to pause, reflect, and give thanks with our whole heart — not just in public, but in the secret places of our lives. This blues song captures that same raw emotion, blending ancient words with the soulful ache and joy of blues music.

** Original Text – Psalm 111 (WEB):

1 Praise Yah!
I will give thanks to Yahweh with my whole heart,
in the council of the upright, and in the congregation.

2 Yahweh’s works are great,
pondered by all those who delight in them.

3 His work is honor and majesty.
His righteousness endures forever.

4 He has caused his wonderful works to be remembered.
Yahweh is gracious and merciful.

5 He has given food to those who fear him.
He always remembers his covenant.

6 He has shown his people the power of his works,
in giving them the heritage of the nations.

7 The works of his hands are truth and justice.
All his precepts are sure.

8 They are established forever and ever.
They are done in truth and uprightness.

9 He has sent redemption to his people.
He has ordained his covenant forever.
His name is holy and awesome!

10 The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of wisdom.
All those who do his work have a good understanding.
His praise endures forever!

** Lyrics – "Whole Heart Hallelujah":

(Slow, soulful blues rhythm)

[Verse 1]
I’m gonna praise Yah with my whole heart,
Yeah, I’m gonna praise Yah with my whole heart.
In the council of the upright,
In the house of the brave,
Gonna lift my voice and call His name.

[Verse 2]
The works of His hands are truth and right,
Oh, the works of His hands are truth and right.
He’s gracious, merciful, mighty to save,
His righteousness rolls like an endless wave.

[Chorus]
Whole Heart Hallelujah, sing it loud and strong,
Whole Heart Hallelujah, He’s been faithful all along.

[Verse 3]
He gives food to the ones who fear His name,
Yes, He gives food to the ones who fear His name.
He remembers His promise, His covenant stands,
He lifts up the lowly with His mighty hand.

[Bridge]
The fear of Yahweh is the start of all wise,
Those who walk in His ways, they’ll see through His eyes.
Holy and awesome is His mighty name,
His praise endures, His love won’t change.

[Final Chorus]
Whole Heart Hallelujah, let the blues bells ring,
Whole Heart Hallelujah, hear the heavens sing.
